All-new updates out now for Real Racing 2 and Real Racing 2 HD

14 July 2011 140 comments

We’ve just released updates for Real Racing 2 and Real Racing 2 HD, bringing both games to v1.11.

These updates include several improvements to multiplayer, an expanded career mode and visual enhancements for Real Racing 2 and various performance tweaks and fixes.

The biggest changes have been to multiplayer, specifically to reduce the impact of malicious drivers and to minimize the side effects of high latency connections. These improvements should result in fairer and more competitive races.

Here’s a complete list of changes for Real Racing 2 HD v1.11:

  • Significant multiplayer improvements:
    • Preventative measures to counteract wall-riding.
    • Fairer track selection and new track voting system.
    • Visual indicators for drivers with high latency.
    • Reduced teleporting and other artifacts caused by high latency.
    • New method to minimize the impact of malicious and extremely high latency drivers.
    • Leaderboards now display a graph of personal best results.
    • Result times will no longer appear as “0:00:00″.
  • Visual improvements to body roll and wheel simulation.
  • Players can now buy cars and upgrades via In-App Purchase.
  • Clock precision has been enhanced and Time Trial results achieved offline are now uploaded the next time you are online.
  • Purchased car upgrades can now be disabled. This will alter the vehicle’s P-rating.
  • Players may trade their only car for another, provided they have the cash to make up the difference.
  • Skid sound effects now increase gradually.
  • When starting a new game, only the Volkswagen GTI and Volvo C30 can be purchased.
  • Additional in-game notification of new content, updates and features.
  • The replay camera now moves more naturally when following vehicles.
  • Fixed an issue that could result in a loss of gyroscope control.
  • Various performance optimizations, including fixes to address intermittent crashes.

    • Along with the changes above (excluding gyroscope improvements), Real Racing 2 players who update to v1.11 will enjoy the following:

      • 7 new career events including:
        • H2NRG Cup
        • Nissan GT-R H2H
        • IEJ Grand Elimination
        • Telkodata Desert Enduro
        • Zannoil V6 Sprint Series
        • IEJ Volkswagen Scirocco R Time Trial
        • IEJ Nissan Upstart Mola Z Time Trial
      • Anti-aliasing support for 3rd generation devices.

      Grab the updates now on the App Store, and we look forward to seeing you on the track!

  • (-: SEE- YA :-)

    Plain and simple THE UPDATE SUCKS !!! my car is 3 to 5 sec SLOWER depending on the track. Give us a new track give kings to a stock car game. And please undo what the hell ever you did to us serious I almost gave up this game it sucks that bad. When it takes a driver 200 plus hours to get a car to drive and handle a certain way and then you change it on him WTF WERE YOU GUYS THINKING. Tell the guys responsible for the update to make little versions of themselfs and run back and forth across the straight-aways so me and the rest of the guys can splater them all over the track. At least we will feel better about it ! :-)

    I am wondering what items are being worked on for the next update.  I have left a few messages outlining  items that I think need to be addressed for the next update.  I hope that the next update is comprehensive, covering all the improvements (and suggestions) that have been made.  I hope to also know of an expected release date, if possible.  This is a good title, but the problems introduced in the latest version, as well as many suggestions, need to be made available in the next update.  We patiently await.

    Hi D.G,

    Please see the following forum thread for an overview of what we're working on:

    We are still investigating many of the reported issues, so I'm afraid I can't give a date for the next update.
    Thanks.

  • Tapm14

    I love the game but I would love for new cars to be added, like Ferrari and Bugatti.  Maybe even motor cycles.  Plus the crashes could be way more destructive than just a broken bumper.  Is there going to be a RR 3?

  • http://www.firemint.com firemint

    We're concentrating on updates to Real Racing 2 at the moment, thanks for the suggestions :)

  • David Polar

    No need to advise again how bad the updates are, everyone knows and hates them. But why now I am getting continual “lost connection with the game server” and the game suddenly ends mid race. Does this happen to anyone else??

    Please go back to old version, please!!

  • http://www.firemint.com firemint

    Hi David,

    We fixed the majority of game server connection issues early last week so we're surprised to hear that you're still seeing this. Please ensure that you're playing on a stable WiFi connection with minimal interference from other devices, and that you're playing the latest version of the game (1.11 for iPhone/iPod, 1.11.01 for iPad).

    Please visit our support site for further assistance: http://www.firemint.com/suppor…

    Or you can email our help address for private support: help@firemint.com

  • David Polar

    Yes playing latest version but still happens several times 3 out of 4 last races. I have stable N speed WiFi with good trs rates.

    More importantly are you going to revert to the old game (Pre update) or are you persisting with this ridiculous game?

    Thank you.

  • Tapm14

    Are you going to add new cars in one of the updates?

  • Guest

    … and how about some color for the MClaren? That may help overcome the WWII look :-)

  • Chris22040

    Hell, I can't even get into half the races. ,you need to complete levels to move on and when I log into a race the game just closes. This is junk!

  • Digital_Guy

    I hope that when there is a new update, that there will be new content, in addition to fixing the problem that some users have described here.

  • Tapm14

    Ya man, but I want audi, like the r8, you know.

  • Tobezzz

    Please could u maybe open the pitlane so u can go and change your tires When ther worn out and fill up with petrol when u run out of it

  • Tobezzz

    Gr8 idea can't wait hope they can do it

  • Tapm14

    I like it.

  • Georgio

    Why can't I do the very last race (League of Legends?) I have finished everything else, including the Ultimate World Championship, but it never gives me the next race. Help?

  • http://www.firemint.com firemint

    Have you 100% finished all previous championship events? The latest update to the iPhone version added some new events, is there any chance you missed them?

    Crashes much, game Is hitler now chicken shit, rr 2 sucks if real broke the car or flip it like your animation portrays, fair racing on a video had it right the 2nd time update now is bitter reminder of better times

  • M Harbison

    Why does the Chengnan track go absolutely dead at the second corner following the uphill straightaway? My car absolutely dies as if the engine has been shutdown. This also happens approaching the first overpass on the MontClair circuit. I am not clueless…I am ranked 18th.

  • http://www.firemint.com firemint

    Strange, we haven't heard of any major issues like this. Could you please report it to our support site for maximum exposure? We'd like to see how common it is, if other players have had this happen then they'll probably respond to the topic.
    Some video footage of it occurring would be great too, if possible.

  • M Harbison

    It happens to everyone all the time. Frustrating to know how great this app was before this latest update. I almost wish that I had never played the previous version…then I wouldn't have known the difference. Sad and disappointing.

  • Tooangry

    When are you going to fix the completely fucked yes I have finally send it fucked update!! How can the cars now be so undrivable?? WTF have you done??? Simply go back to the previous version – so simple and stop those idiot coders from touching it in the future!!!

  • Hannes Klonster

  • Joe Brausch

    When I use manual acceleration it now slows down slowly to a stop. When I first started using it was great for the few races. Is there a fix for this?

  • Rmlahud

    I would like to know if y'all are ever going to open pit lane so we can change tires and get fuel.
    That would make the racing experience better and more exciting

  • Raysphilibert

    I am a new at this but good let see

  • Szcobra138

    How do I change P ratings?  I have looked and could not find it.

    How do I change P ratings?  I have looked and could not find it.

  • Szcobra138

    An event is restricted because of the 75-82 Prating.  I have 75, so why am I still restricted?

  • Szcobra138

    Also, how do you turn down break control to get more speed?  Does anyone know?

    thanx

  • http://www.firemint.com firemint

    Are you sure it’s only the P rating restriction stopping you? Some events have multiple requirements. Please visit http://www.firemint.com/support for more help.

    You can upgrade your car by visiting the Pitlane>Customize>Performance menu.
